Novell ZENWORKS APPLICATION VIRTUALIZATION 8.0.2 - 11-2010 User Manual page 39

The Target architecture option matches the structure of the virtual environment to the desired
host process architecture.
x86: Use this option for applications that were snapshotted on x86 systems. This option maps the
Program Files directory to C:\Program Files on x86 systems or to C:\Program Files (x86) on
x64 systems. .NET applications always run as 32-bit applications.
x64: Use this option for applications that were snapshotted on x64 systems. This option maps the
Program Files directory to C:\Program Files on x64 systems. The Program Files (x86)
directory is mapped to C:\Program Files on x86 systems and C:\Program Files (x86) on x64
systems. .NET applications run as 32-bit applications on x86 systems and 64-bit applications on
x64 systems.
Any CPU: Use this option for .NET applications that are compiled to run on any CPU
architecture. This option maps the Program Files directory to C:\Program Files on x86 systems
and C:\Program Files on x64 systems. .NET applications run as 32-bit applications on x86
systems and 64-bit applications on x64 systems.
4.4.5 Environment variables
Some applications may depend on the presence of certain Windows environment variables in
order to function properly. ZENworks Application Virtualization allows virtualization of
environment variables to support such applications.
To add or modify virtual environment variables:
•
Click the Environment Variables... button. This displays the Environment Variables
dialog.
•
Enter environment variable names and values into the environment variable list.
Most virtual environment variables overwrite any environment variables defined in the host
environment. However, the special PATH and PATHEXT environment variables are always
merged with the corresponding host environment variables.
Environment variables are automatically captured and merged during the snapshotting delta
process. Therefore, it is generally unnecessary to manually configure environment variable
settings.
4.4.6 Virtual services
Windows services are specialized applications that execute in the background and are typically
responsible for providing system services such as database services, network traffic handling, web
request processing, and other server functionality. Many applications install and require specific
services in order to function properly.
ZENworks Application Virtualization fully supports virtualization of Windows services. To view
or modify virtual service settings, press the Virtual Services... button. This displays the Virtual
Services dialog.
